Jess Young, Designer, Conway and Young, UK
Jess Young is one half of the graphic design studio Conway and Young. Situated within the expanded field of graphic design, they produce a range of outcomes, which are process-led and respond to specific contexts.
Established in 2006, the itinerant and evolving studio was founded on the principles of friendship and curiosity. Work often involves collaborations with others and is motivated by design’s critical, social and political potential to activate space.
